Premiere: Palomino Blond Drop Plain View Single

Leave a comment

Miami based upstarts Palomino Blond have already released a couple of singles this year leading to some organic buzz building around the band (see “Left” here and “Understand” here). Prior to an album drop on Friday, we are pleased to share this brand new single with you all called “Plain View.” If you know me, my new music tastes trend towards something unique or a refreshing take on an older genre. Both things are true for me on this track as the band take a sort of late 90’s grunge sound and twist it up with heavier, emotional lyrics and a hint of bright shoegaze. I think you’ll dig it.

Palomino Blond will release this as part of a new album entitled You Feel it Too which drops this Friday via Kanine Records. Pre-orders are live now.

Get Into Las Nubes

Leave a comment

If you don’t already have Las Nubes on your radar, today’s a great day to dive into their music, vital considering they release Tormentas Malsanas today. This single below is a firestorm of wailing guitars and huge hooks, just an offering to the gods of rock n’ roll…and you the listener. Personally the urgency in their execution is what drives the song’s; they seem in a rush to hit you with immediacy, leaving no room for error or room to breathe. Crank up the volume on your speakers and let Las Nubes when you over with their brand new set of tunes!

Donzii Release New Single from For the People Release

Leave a comment

Florida group Donzii dropped a few EPs in the last years before the pandemic, and now that they’re back with a new record, Fishbowl, they’ve decided to toss those old EPs out to the world and throw in a few bonus tunes! Below you’ll get “For the People,” which feels like it lives in the land somewhere between ESG and Blondie, as there’s a definite hook-laden groove, though not entirely ready for that dancefloor. This feels like one of those late night tunes that helps you wind down the party, while still feeling really cool about your musical tastes! If you dig this jam, listen to the whole For the People release, with those two hits!

Dreams On Tape Release Nostalgia

Leave a comment

A wee bit ago, we were turned onto Florida’s Dreams On Tape, the bedroom project of Jake Benfant. Today sees the release of the Nostalgia EP, and I’d love to give some more hype to title track here. It’s a familiar pop sound, one that early fans of Wild Nothing will likely find super enjoyable, employing solid bouncing rhythms and a nice little dream meets jangle guitar line hanging out there in the wind. There’s a bit of longing in Jake’s vocals here, which ties into the concept of reflecting on the past and how we tend to see it with a sense of longing. Don’t you dare tell me that chorus isn’t a hit! Enjoy.

Dreams on Tape Share Home

Leave a comment

Dreams on Tape is a new bedroom project coming out of Florida, and the mood of the latest single kind of fits in with my Friday vibe. It has that turning jangle in the guitar, but has that sort of breezy wistfulness, like you’re looking off into the horizon daydreaming about what’s next in your life. It’s all served up to you with these thickly coated vocals and a nice little subtle beat that steadies the song nicely. There’s just this natural feeling of hope here, which might be a great way to sort of close out 2020. Look for the Nostalgia EP real soon!

Dreamy Pop From Sea Cycles

Leave a comment

After a somewhat down year in 2018 for music, I’m moving into 2019 with the hopes of finding some inspiration via new bands and tunes. Today I look no further than Jacksonville, FL based band Sea Cycles and their new single entitled “Quota”. It’s as if a band like Choir of Young Believers took their mellow pop and meshed with with the striking beats of a band like Grizzly Bear. Here’s to a new year, and new music.

Start Your Day With UV-TV

Leave a comment

Are you in need of a little pick me up this morning to make it trough the mid part of the week? Well you need look no further than this bad A new single called “Go Away” from Florida based rockers UV-TV. Clocking in at only 78 minutes long, you might need to play this rocker on repeat to truly appreciate the subtleties of the track. I’m finding several little new pieces to enjoy as hit play over and over…. and over and over.

UV-TV will release new EP Go Away on August 18th via Emotional Response.

Another Hit From Faze Wave

Leave a comment

Mr. Wanklord shared a a nice new track from Faze Wave back in January and today I’m pleased to share another new jam from the group entitled “Chemistry”. The song has the wonderful hope about it as it rises and builds into a state of dreaminess and pop delight. Honestly, it’s one of the best tracks I’ve heard in the last few weeks. Enjoy and stay tuned as we hear more from this promising young act.

Day Joy Return!

Leave a comment

14900599_1101102266671394_6097542225198903490_nWe made some posts about Orlando based outfit Day Joy in late 2012/early 2013 and hyped the band as one of the next big things. After the hype, no one really heard much from the group over the last 3 years as Michael Serrin, the mastermind of the project, dealt with the loss of a family member and depression. Well Serrin has luckily decided to make music again and just sent me this gem entitled”Florida’s Warm”. You can obviously hear some of the pain in Serrin’s voice as he takes us through this hushed beauty of a track. Powerful stuff.

Expect a new album from Day Joy to come your way in the Spring of 2017.
